"MS Dhoni commented 'You have the kid...', to which Virat Kohli responded..." - Disclosure of Vaibhav Suryavanshi's conversation with IPL veterans
What a ride it's been for teenage sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi! Following his record-shattering, 38-ball century against Gujarat Titans that catapulted Rajasthan Royals to an impressive victory, Suryavanshi caught up with cricket legends MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli.
In a lively chat with Sports Today, Rajasthan Royals team manager Romi Bhinder divulged that Suryavanshi recently crossed paths with the enigmatic Dhoni at the Guwahati match earlier in the tournament. Bhinder drew attention to similarities between the two, highlighting their shared coolness in the heat of battle while maintaining an assertive batting style.
Bhinder recalled Dhoni's encouraging words for Suryavanshi, praising the youngster's play and likening him to a seasoned player.
"See, he met Dhoni last match in Guwahati. He'll meet him again in Chennai against CSK, but I can see similar traits in both blokes. They're as cool as cucumbers, yet firing off cracking shots. There's a few parallels here."
"Dhoni even said, 'alright, you got yourself a young gun. This youngster's throwing down shots like an old-school vet,'" said Bhinder with a grin.
